The WELLCAM brand is the brand name of well inspection cameras manufactured by Kavosh Mechanized Fanavar Company, which operate for videometry of water wells using CCTV technology. The family of these inspection cameras has so far designed and produced 7 models and sold them to the private and government sectors.
WELLCAM I
The first model of WELLCAM cameras with the ability to withstand 300 meters of water column (30 bar pressure) was designed and manufactured in … year. This camera performed inspection of the well wall by providing an axial image along the axis of the well. The instantaneous position of the camera inside the well was visible on the image. The operator could view the image information by moving the camera and code the features relative to the height of the well water column.
WELLCAM 2
The second model in this family solved the problem of the previous model, which was light reflection and reduced image quality due to lighting from inside the protective glass cap, by removing the light source from the camera’s protective glass cap. The placement of two light sources, one in the camera’s wall and the other in its neck, increased image clarity and was a feature of this model.
WELLCAM 3
The third model of this brand was a model based on cable cameras that could withstand pressure of over 30 bar and had the possibility of proper lighting. This economical model was designed and manufactured according to the market needs.
WELLCAM 4
The fourth model of this brand challenged the second model by removing the light source outside the protective glass sphere of the camera that filled the middle of the image at the end of the well, by placing the light source in the wall next to the protective glass bubble in … This model, which was also accompanied by a different design of the cable reel and control console, was also sometimes known as the portable well camera. This camera is equipped with a PTZ (Pan–tilt–zoom camera) module that allows the camera to rotate 360 degrees in the environment. This camera has a retractable cable, is electric, lightweight and portable. The console of this camera has the ability to display, store videos and photos and display the instantaneous distance of the navigation. This camera has an independent axial lighting system and can withstand 250 meters of water column (25 bar pressure) and provides good axial and radial inspection in the water well.
WELLCAM 5
The fourth model of the WELLCAM brand cameras, the single camera system with a PTZ module was replaced by four independent cameras. In this model, their images can be viewed and stored simultaneously or independently on the device console. One camera provides a video of the well axis, and the other three cameras, located at angles of 120 degrees from each other, cover the full image of the well wall. The current position of the camera inside the well is visible on the image. The advantage of this model over previous models is that in this model, operator error in videometry operations is minimized, and even after the completion of the videometry operation, it is possible to restore and repeat the inspection only by relying on the recorded video. This camera has an independent axial and radial lighting system and can withstand 300 meters of water column (30 bar pressure) and provides excellent axial and radial inspection in the water well.
